Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

mraculeated The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Hayleigh Joseph This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

Edgar Allan Pooh " . . . do not knock it," Henry the Skunk-of-a-runaway-husband-and-dad (a.k.a., Pepe Le Pew) says to conclude WILD OVER YOU. Obviously, this punch line is meaningless without knowing what the "it" is. What exactly is "it" here? "It" can be summed up in two words: Rough Sex. Pepe has tried to "close the deal" five times with an escaped wild cat who has painted itself up as a skunk to avoid recapture. (Since Pepe is nose blind, he never quails at his opportunities for inter-species trysts.) The Warner Bros. animators portray these five attempted rapes as cartoon whirlwinds--the representation you might expect if Bugs Bunny tried to get it on with the Tasmanian Devil. Pepe is somewhat ambivalent as he emerges banged up from his first four scrapes with the wildcat, but in the middle of his fifth attack (what he would call "Shooting Zee fish in Zee Barrel," as the pair are crammed into the basket of a rising hot air balloon), sadomasochist Pepe decides it's all good.

TheLittleSongbird If you are familiar with Pepe LePew, you will know where Wild Over You is going to go. But that isn't enough to mar the cartoon's enjoyment. The animation is full of simple detail and elegant colour, very Chuck Jones but with also an authentic touch. The music is catchy and beautifully orchestrated, with a lovely amorous French flavour. The dialogue is very witty and quite kinky even for a Pepe cartoon, a series that was uniquely risqué to start with. The gags are as is the case with Pepe and Looney Tunes in general clever and imaginatively timed. The story could be seen as formulaic, but the vibrant pacing and entertainment value more than makes up for that. Pepe is still likable and true to the personality that we are used to seeing him, and the cat contrasts with him very well. Mel Blanc, criss crossing Charles Boyer and Maurice Chevalier, is stellar. All in all, a fine cartoon that has much to like about it. 9/10 Bethany Cox

Lee Eisenberg I don't know who said it, but a really good quote says that an insane person does the same thing over and over and expects a different result (which can easily apply to the present state of US-foreign policy). But at the very least, we can apply it to Pepe Le Pew, who always tries to to get slinky with females but always repels them.In "Wild Over You", a wild cat - presumably a female, but they don't really identify the gender - escapes from a Paris zoo and paints herself black and white. Sure enough, Pepe sees her and his hormones go crazy. But this wild cat is a real fighter, and nearly massacres Pepe every time that he tries to hug and kiss her. Of course, Pepe never gives up.Probably what makes me laugh the most in this cartoon is how they play with the French language. Every sign begins with "le", and a paper boy shouts out "Read-ay vous all about it!" after the wild cat escapes. I can imagine that Michael Maltese had a lot of fun writing the screenplay, Mel Blanc had a lot of fun creating the voices, and Chuck Jones had a lot of fun directing. A really funny cartoon.

tony_ginorio This is the kinkiest of all the Pepe Le Pew cartoons (and the series is pretty out there to begin with!). Pepe's quarry in this one is an escaped wild cat, disguised as a skunk to elude capture. When Pepe goes after her, she doesn't merely run away--she viciously mauls him in a hissing flurry of fur and claws. Rather than deter him, the violence seems to entice him all the more! At the end, he tells the audience, "If you have not tried it, do not knock it". Hard to believe that this cartoon was shown to 1950s theater audiences, or that it is still shown to children. It's twisted and subversive...and funny as all get out! It just goes to show what you can get away with in animation.
